Abby and I spent the night away from the hospital for the first time in a week last night. We came back at lunchtime today and had a good afternoon with Ellie until Abby left around 3 when I took Ellie out for a status if the hospital- some time on the grass in the garden, a trip to get an early dinner and then some laps around the floor.A sunny day in the hospital garden is a great thing. They get everyone, and I mean everyone, out to get some sun if they can, including having two orferlies wheel a full sized hopital bed out so a teenaged girl could see the sun. Really great to see that kind of thing.
We got back around 5 and she was wide awake until just shy of 8 this evening when I finally got her to go to sleep.
Hopefully she willbe better on the gas tonight since they have essentially left her G-tube open for the night with a small bottle to catch any liquid.
Anyway the picture from this afternoon shows Eleanor at her widest awake.
Pay no attention to the creepy vein on her nose.

Yeah right, Irish songs.
Unfortunately, I am too much of an Irish sap to get the words out without weeping.
